“VIB Rouge members will receive an email on 3/24 inviting them to the Spring Social event. If you are a VIB Rouge and have not received the email please alert a moderation in the VIB Rouge section on BeautyTalk, on or after 3/24/2014.”

I don’t see the bag as an extra at all…..and the in store event ends at 11am, no one wakes up before 12pm on weekends……and come on…..anyone who is already a rouge member probably already own way too many makeup bags since we buy so many beauty product and make up bag seems to be a staple as free gifts…..
In terms of real benefits, points or discount wise, I am not seeing a whole lot / major differences between rouge and vib.
Not trying to complain since they really dint need to do anything and beauty junkies like ourselves will still shop anyways……but you know, if you put it out there, make it good.

If people are working they won’t be able to make the event would they? I obviously meant people who are not working would be sleeping in……I work on weekends often, I wake up early when I have to work, not when I am off……..

Not sure if Rouge members get a different makeup bag, but I’m not a Rouge member, just a VIB, and was able to pick up a makeup bag this past Thursday.. if it is the same bag, I think Rouge members should at least have something inside the bag as the bonus!

I recall the 20% one being closer to Christmas. I do a lot of my Christmas shopping there – for my daughter, my nieces, my best friend’s daughter, daughter in law and soon to be (we hope) daughter in law. That’s part of how I bump up to VIB Rouge every year!

I just got in from the special event here and I was totally blown away. The store manager wasn’t happy with the items being given to the VIB members – her feeling was that those people should be rewarded with more than a makeup bag and a few ditzy little items so she and her staff have been stocking up for months on items to add. I was blown away – I got a full sized Ready Blush in the colour Tease from BM, a bottle of Phyto spray shine stuff for hair and several other items. I had a great time and bought some stuff and the coffee was GOOOOD!

That’s awesome! I was kind of let down by the event I went to. I usually donate freebies and will be donating the bag and samples I got. The cookies and coffee were good and the demos neat but as a Rouge I would of been more impressed by no event and just a full size lipstick or whatever. Also, some of the customers were insane making mad dashes for things. Overall I don’t think I will be getting up at 7 ( I live far from Sephora now) on a Weekend for this. Please don’t get me wrong I am grateful for the bag and know it will be well received as a donation
